Think of the happiest, safest and cleanest country in the world. Imagine studying there.
Finland offers all of this and much more. It is located in Northern Europe and borders Norway and
Sweden.
The country’s educational system is one of the most important foundations of its society. The
Finns are proud to have an educational system that gives equal chances to everyone, regardless of sex, finances or language.
English is spoken by almost everyone and Finland has a lot to offer to international students
who want to venture into its lands. The Finnish higher education institutions currently offer
altogether over 450 bachelor’s and master’s degree programs in English.
Two key factors which make Finland a great higher-ed destination are – the availability of jobs and affordably priced education. A student can earn their degree at 1/3rd of the cost in other countries like Australia and the US. Furthermore, there are plenty of jobs currently available and being created across a plethora of sectors.
